Just thought i'd share my tank with the macro algae people. :)

 

Here's a link to my full tank build:

This topic will be only about my macro algaes though.

List of what i have so far:

-Chaeto (Chaetomorpha Spiralis)

-Red gracillaria (Gracilaria tikvahiae)

-Spiky ball seaweed (Hypnea pannosa)

-Red Grape (Botryocladia uvaria)

-Halimeda (Halimeda incrassata)

-Mermaid's Fan (Udotea petiolata)

-Red Palm

-Violet Flames

-Rose Petal (Porphyra leucosticta)

-Red Dragon

-Flamed Tip Dragons Breath (Halymenia)

-Neomeris

-Martians Rose (Peyssonneliacapensis)

-Volcano Sunburst (eucheuma)

-Maidens hair (Cymopolia Barbata)

-fern caulerpa (Caulerpa sertularioides)

-red mangroves (Rhizophora mangle)

- Ulva

 

Most of which i purchased from LA reefs besides Chaeto, Red gracillaria, Hypnea pannosa. I just got them in today, so we will see how they do.

I am beginning to love macro tanks more and more and its because of tanks like this. Awesome stuff man. If your stuff grows out and you sell it I might be interested in a couple pieces.

No more LA reefs for me. Horrible business. Very expensive macro came today in 41 degree water. IDK if it will make it. Its one of the smallest clippings ive ever seen... The only way i could say something nice about the company is if they give me my money back... I guess we will see if they ever e-mail me back..
